he could not look her in the eyes.

.nial Ia the River Press.

Special to the River Press.
HELENA, April 18.--A special to the
Independent says: The president has
decided to appoint Judge Mcconnell, Of
Tennessee, chief justice of Montana, in
place Of Hon. Decius S. Wade, whose term
Of Office expired in February. Delegate
Tooe has been here strongly urging a
Montana man for the place, but the presi-
dent informed him that Judge Mcconnell
was SO strongly recommended that he has
decided to give him the place, having full
faith in his ability and integrity, from
the representations made in his behalf by
the Tennessee delegation, and many other
friends urged him for the place. The
president claimed that inasmuch as there
were several Montana applicants he had
concluded to appoint an outsider.
ST. PAUL, April lG.-A Washington
special to the Pioneer Press says: The
president to-day appointed Newton White
head Mcconnell, of Tennessee, to the
chief justiceship of the supreme court of
Montana, in place Of d. s. Wade, resign
ed. He was a candidate and was in the
city looking after his interests. Some
weeks ago he was endorsed by the entire
delegation in congress from Tennessee, es-
pecially by Hon. Benton Mcmillan, in
whose district he lives. Mcmillan had
also something to do in securing the APP
pOntment of Gov. Leslie, of Montana,
who is an uncle of his. McConnell's
friends in this city spoke of him in the
highest terms as man, democrat and
lurist. They say that he will be very pop
olar with Montana people. Judge Me-
Connell will leave for Montana to assume
tIe duties of his office at once. He is said
70 be strong temperance man and to in
uorse the temperance movement, although
democrat always. He is a resident of
worthwhile, Tenn, and is ffftY-ffve years
u age He IS member of a family num-
eTouS and prominent in the state. He
was Tor many years one of the lights of
lhe BAR In 1873 he went into politics and
was elected to the state senate. In 1874
l!S name was brought forward for con-
gFess in the convention which afterwards
dominated j. w. Head, and he received a
sIFong support which followed him 10y
ally through many ballots of that heated
contest. Some years later he was ap-
pointed Judge of the circuit court of the
STATE to fill vacancy, and at the next gem
eral election he was elected to the full
eFm of six years. He sat eleven years
"a the circuit bench and has high repu-
&JIon as jurist, both in civil and crimi-
lal cases.

The Work of Crank Indian Agent.

81. PAUL, April IA Washington
special to the Pioneer Press esays the In
dian bureau has no inf rmation regarding
the arrest of Montana farmers for the al
legged cutting of timber on the Crow In
dian reservation. The commissioner be-
lieyes that the agent would not have taken
any arbitrary action without reporting to
the office. He is disposed to think that
the alleged depredations of whites, if any j,
could not have been injuriously extensive,
and that scarcity of fuel would go far TO
excuse such depredations if there was any
such committed as alleged in the special
dispatch from Billings. The theory en-
tertained at the department is that Agent
Williamson has exceeded his authority if
any arrests of settlers have been made in
the absence of any advices to the depart
ment. The theory is entertained here that
there must be mistake for had Agent
Williamson made the arrests reported he
would have promptly notified the depart
mont of the fact and asked for further in
StructiOns.

A Sad Suicide.

NoRFoLK, Va, April 15.-When the
stateroom of the steamer Virginia, from
Baltimore to Norfolk, occupied last night
by Robert Gatewood was opened this
morning his body was found in bed with
a pistol ball in the brain. The evidence
before the coroner showed that he had
committed suicide. Young Gatewood
was a son of Rev. DR.. GateWood, of this
city, and was % years of age. lie was q
graduate from Annapolis with high hon.
ors. AS cadet engineer he made one
cruise and resigned. He taught physics
and electricity at John Hopkins universi-
ty, and at the time ef his death was fourth
assistant examiner in the division of steam
engineering of the patent office at Wash
ington. His mind, which was uncom-
monty bright, had become unbalanced by
intense study, and the writings he left
show that he imagined himself pursued
by demons and chose death as the only es-
cape from them.

feet that Mr.. Griswold went out to the
barn yard to sell a neighbor some hay.
The latter went after his team and return
ed to find Grlswold dead near the hay
stack, surrounded by evidence of suicide.
In his pocket was a note praying the for
giveness of God and bidding his wife fare
well. A coroner's inquest was held and a
verdict in accordance with the facts re-
turned. No motive for the suicide is as
signed. The deceased was man Of
wealth. $4,000 or more, and in a situa-
ton to enjoy life thoroughly. His first
wife was the divorced wife of John w.
Graves of Shields river, Gallatin county.
She died about year ago. He married a
lady from jamestown, D. L. They lived
happily together and there was no known
trouble in Griswold's life to induce him to
willfully take it. He leaves no children.

rs it the Manitoba 9!

Portland News: Preliminary surveys
have been made from Farmington to Null
len in the Ceur d'Alene country, and
from Pennington to Spokane, for the
Washington & Idaho railroad company.
A practicable route has been found around
the south and east sides Of Cmur d'Alene
lake, thence along C#ur d'Alene and
South Fork rivers to Mullen, near the Ida
ho and Montana boundary. It is believed
this work has been done by the Manitoba
& st. Paul system, although according to
one report the Oregon Railway & Naviga-
ton is behind the Washington g. Idaho
line. From Mullen it is easy to extend
along st. Regis river and up the Missoula
river to Missoula, where st. Paul 81 Man

The Benton Chartered.

Messrs. Shepard u Winston have char
tered the steamer Benton, not the Batche-
lor, as heretofore noted. The Bismarck
Tribune has the following in regard to the
matter:
The steamer Benton has been chartered
by Shepard & Winston, the railroad con-
tractors, and will be used by them during
the summer in transporting supplies from
this point to the extension of the Manitoba
road. The boat will be placed under COM
mand of Captain John Barr, and will be
one OF the busiest crafts on the stream.

The Globe Sticks to the Electric Light Busi-
ness.

The st. Paul Globe of the 9th says:
The Manitoba road has now an immense
force at Minot at work on the extension of
that road to Great Falls and Helena. Two
hundred cars of material will be required
a day all the season for the prosecution of
this unequaled feat Of railroad building.
The grade has been completed one hun
dred miles west of Minot. A good deal of
material has been sent from Casselton over
the Northern Pacific to Bismarck with the
intention Of shipping it up the river to
Fort Buford for the purpose of laying the
track from the west. It is doubtful if this
can be done, and if it cannot, three relays
of men are TO be engaged laying track
from Minot, using electric lights at night
and laying six to seven miles Of rails each
twenty-four hours. 1t is the intention to
haye the cars running from st. Paul to
Helena ever this line before fall.

TWO FOX,
ore of the Murderers of Caldwell.
Run Down by Sheriff Black,
gut Takes His Own Life in Preference to Be-
ing Arrested---British Bloods Also
Connected With the Crime.

snecial to tae River Press.
srN RIVER, April 16.-Sheriff W. Fl.
Black has just returned from tracing the
,,nrderers of Caldwell, which he succeed
oa in doing, as far as circumstantial evil
5orce goes. The same night March 28th)
+bar Caldwell stopped at Bevans' place a
piagan Indian named Two Fox, belong
inc TO the Blackfoot agency, also stopped
more The Indian left before Caldwell
gis pony tracks were easily followed and
pd to the very spot where Caldwell was
mnrdered Four or five other pony tracks
With one shod horse track were found to
have Joined Two Fox's trail, also leading
n The scene of the murder. Caldwell
uas found to have been shot through the
hack the ball passing through the heart.
From the scene of the murder the tracks
d the murderers again diverged, Two
Foxs going towards the Teton, to place
where he had formerly lived, and the trail
@ the others, with a second shOd horse,
taken from Caldwell, made directly for
the British line. The first shod horse is
supposed to have been the one stolen from
Dare & Kennedy on the night previous to
the murder. Sheriff Black trailed Two
Fox to the Blackfoot agency, which he
reached on the 9Th inst. Major Baldwin,
the agent, was informed of the circum-
stances and Immediately sent for Two Fox
to come to his office. Instead of doing so
the Indian mounted his horse and left.
Major Baldwin sent his Indian police to
apprehend him, and catching up to him
Two Fox said he would not be taken alive,
and placing his gun to his breast shot and
mortally wounded himself, falling from
his horse and dying in short time, max
ing no confession or statement about the
matter. The other Indians were without
doubt Bloods from across the line.
